How to Deliver a Phone Message for Your Representatives

1.  If you are not sure who you Representative(s) is/are, go to https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative and enter your zip code to get the information for your member of Congress.

2.  Call the U.S. House switchboard at (202) 224-3121. If you cannot get through the first time that you call, please keep trying as the switchboard may be extremely busy!

3.  Follow the prompts or say the name of which member of Congress you wish to speak to.

4.  A staff person will answer the phone. A sample message is listed below, but it is even better if you use your own message!

Message Example:

I am a constituent of Representative (name) from (hometown) and I am calling to urge Representative NAME to vote for H.R. 649 the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act of 2019. This bill will help to end our complicity in the horrific crimes against humanity being carried out by the Chinese government against the Uyghur people. Please tell Representative NAME to vote to pass this bill and stand up for human rights.  Thank you.
